On Hitting Wefunder Milestones & Being a Startup World Cup Semifinalist

We’ve already sold out half of our Early Bird shares on Wefunder! To our latest cohort of 118 investors—welcome to Zette 🎉

We’ve officially surpassed $650k in total investments with 100+ investors on Wefunder, already selling out half of our Early Bird allocation 🎉

Our newest investors have joined us from the latest editions of Wall Street Oasis and Mindstream, both of which have featured Zette this week. We’re grateful to reach such large audiences of investment-minded readers, and excited to highlight our mission to revolutionize access to journalism and the unique investment opportunity that Zette represents.

This is far from the first time we’ve gotten major press attention:

Last year Zette was a semi-finalist at the Startup World Cup, where we pitched onstage with world-class entrepreneurs from over 40 countries. Hosted at the Hilton Hotel in San Francisco with over 3k registered attendees, the conference was covered by international press—so much so that we even ended up on the Pakistani news!

Despite an influx of investor interest from the public after the event, our company didn’t have a crowdfunding vehicle open at the time. Having largely raised money from institutional investors, we were new to the idea that companies can harness the power of community to supercharge their growth—all while sharing upside with their earliest supporters.

Just like we’re democratizing access to media, we’re now democratizing the opportunity to invest. If you’re excited about the future of media and AI, join the Zette revolution before our Wefunder round closes in April 🚀
